Wide-track version of the original X-Chock. Fits tandem axle tire spacing from 10" to 17" β designed for trailers with wider-than-standard axle gaps. Ratchet wrench included. Lockable with optional pad lock. Made in the USA. Limited lifetime warranty.
The BAL X-Chock is one of the most recognized tandem axle stabilizers in the RV industry β and the 28014 X-Tended Fit is the version built for trailers where the standard model simply won't reach. Instead of pushing against the side of a single tire like a traditional wedge chock, the X-Chock inserts between the two tires on a tandem axle and ratchets outward, applying opposing force to both tires simultaneously. This works with the tires' natural movement rather than against it, dramatically reducing the rocking and swaying that makes a parked trailer uncomfortable.
The X-Tended Fit model addresses a real-world problem: many modern trailer manufacturers β including Bullet, LaCrosse, PrimeTime, Passport, and North Trail β build their frames with up to 15" of spacing between tandem tires. The standard 28010 X-Chock only extends to 10", leaving it unable to engage properly on these wider configurations. The 28014 extends all the way to 17", covering every wide-track axle spacing currently in production.
Covers wide-track axle spacing up to 17" β handles the widest tandem axle configurations in production
Braces both tires simultaneously, working with natural tire movement to absorb sway rather than fight it
Compatible with the optional BAL 28015 pad lock for added theft deterrence when the trailer is left unattended
US Patent #8,365,875. Zinc-coated, rust-inhibitive steel construction for years of outdoor use
The X-Chock is a stabilizer, not a safety tire chock. It is designed to reduce sway and rocking on a parked, already-leveled trailer β it should not be used to prevent the trailer from rolling on a slope and is not a substitute for wheel chocks used during leveling. Correct sequence: Level your trailer first using wheel chocks and jacks, then insert the X-Chock between the tandem tires and ratchet it snug. Deploy stabilizing jacks before extending any slide-outs. Power tool caution: Per BAL's instructions, do not use a cordless impact wrench to operate the X-Chock. Use only the included ratchet handle, or a drill with an adjustable chuck set to feel resistance. Impact wrench use can damage the mechanism.

The following trailer brands are commonly built with wider-than-standard tandem axle spacing that requires the X-Tended Fit 28014 rather than the standard 28010: β’ Bullet β’ LaCrosse β’ PrimeTime β’ Passport β’ North Trail This list is not exhaustive. Always measure the gap between your tandem tires before ordering. If the spacing exceeds 10", the 28014 is the correct model.
The X-Chock family has two models that cover different spacing ranges: β’ 28010 / 28012 β Standard X-Chock, extends to 10" β for typical tandem axle spacing β’ 28014 / 28024 β X-Tended Fit, extends to 17" β for wide-track axle spacing (this item) Measure the distance between the facing sidewalls of your tandem axle tires before ordering. If your gap is up to 10", use the 28010. If it's between 10" and 17", use the 28014.
If you're unsure which model fits your trailer, measure the gap between the facing sidewalls of your two tandem axle tires. Up to 10" β order the 28010. Between 10" and 17" β order the 28014.
